    Shut down modding because the 4th best selling game of all time wasn't making enough money. Greed doesn't even begin to cover it; it's best people make a fuss now before it becomes standard practice

    Removing mods is the worst. Literally unplayable. So much hate coming their way now. They took a beloved game and absolutely ruined it by banning mods.

    If there's any game that you can always pick up on a rainy day and consistently have a good time playing, then GTA V is it. It's a highly polished, immense, immersive, near-endless package of fun that'll consume hours of your life in no time.

Despite being wide open and having tons of things everywhere, and beautiful graphics and people walking around... there wasn't anything to do. I played for hours just to get to the point where I opened up the other characters only to realize that now I had to play as that character... for a few more hours just to switch back. IDK the story wasn't bad, to be honest I never finished it because I wanted to go and do other things and I looked everywhere and there wasn't anything worth doing. What happened to having a ton a missions you could pick up that would actually give you some benefit? The only thing that was fun about this was the heists but even those quickly lost their luster.

    As to the online play IDK it just wasn't appealing to me at all. This game was made for a different generation of gamer and put the last nail in the coffin for me when it comes to the GTA series. All of the online missions were the opposite of fun, again except for the heists which were pretty cool.

    If you want to go on endless random pointless killing sprees and follow a fairly linear story-line across 4 people (only one of which you'll actually like) then pick this one up. If you like this sort of thing... I'm only 29 and I think I'm just getting to old for this kind of stupid junk.    … Expand

It came out nearing four years ago in 2013, yet it still has millions of players. Rockstar Games are constantly bringing out new updates to the game, such as: stunt races, Deadline etc. etc. In Grand Theft Auto 5, you will be introduced to 3 characters. Michael Townley, Franklin Clinton and Trevor Philipps. You take on massive heists, assassinate targets, and much more in the Grand Theft Auto 5 story mode.

    It was brought to the next generation consoles, and gamers were astonished by the amazing graphics Grand Theft Auto 5 has. It has improved textures and much more. Rockstar has added attention to detail in the game like: oil spilling out of a damaged car, flags moving when a grenade blows up near it, and your characters clothes being wet after coming out of water or in rain.

    Probably the most played feature in Grand Theft Auto 5 is GTA Online. This quite obviously lets you play with other people across the globe and also your friends. It constantly gets updated, and snow is seen at Christmas Time. GTA Online allows people to create their own levels and when published people can play it and earn money from it. After completing something like a heist or a mission you will be rewarded with money and RP. RP is what levels you up in GTA Online, and the more you level up the more stuff you can get. A player can progress all the way to rank 8,000. You can do multiple things with your money such as: buy houses/apartments. You can also buy flashy vehicles and customise them at Los Santos Customs, or some vehicles are able to go to the other mod shop: Benny's Original Motorworks and go full out with the customization options they are given. Players can also buy guns on GTA Online just like in story mode. These guns can be used in free mode, heists, missions, or user created levels that allow them to.

    Overall, Grand Theft Auto 5 is a must buy game on a gamer's list, and if you are still unsure about buying the game you can watch videos of the game from channels on YouTube. I guarantee almost all of the gaming related channels will have at least one video of Grand Theft Auto 5.    … Expand

I love Rockstar but the absolute wankers they have managing their online content are dragging the title through the dirt. **** Red Dead 2 pump some **** money back in to your biggest franchise or end up like EA and Ubisoft. Rockstars prestige is wearing very **** thin when you access online content only to face endless trolling, and server problems. I wish I could give a better review I wish online didn’t exist in this game as it only serves to destroy its reputation. If you want a 10/10 game avoid GTA online if you want a 5 out of 10 game go ahead and signup you’ll be bitterly disappointed. I’d rather have not have ever accessed the online content as it has only served to depreciate my love of Rockstar. It is safe to say I will be avoiding the online section of GTA 6 as I feel the benefit of ignorance far outweighs the cost of caring about GTA online only to be slapped in the face by a poor quality insult to the franchise. I’ve had more than enough server ejections and game play flaws online to categorically assert that GTA 5 online is a mess, should you have any doubt, try to access the heist missions you’ll understand, when you try and try to complete even the simplest of missions you’ll see the trolls, quitters and server problems I’m taking about.… Expand

    Having played this on both the Xbox 360 and PS4. I have to admit, this was a much needed upgrade. The new content was a welcome addition, especially after being away from the game for more than a year! To be honest, there is just TOO MUCH to do!! (Which isn't a bad thing, there were just a LOT of updates to multiplayer since March of 2015.)

The new content was a welcome addition, especially after being away from the game for more than a year! To be honest, there is just TOO MUCH to do!! (Which isn't a bad thing, there were just a LOT of updates to multiplayer since March of 2015.)

    GTA Online will suck you in, yet at the same time, I kind of wished they would've addressed the loading times between online matches. The wait is shorter than the 360, but not by a whole lot. To me, it has deterred from me playing it on a regular basis again. Although, a HUGE PLUS for me was that I could transfer my GTA character from a Xbox 360 version to the PS4. (As R* uses their own servers to streamline character data to all platforms.) So I never lost any progress and can continue to enjoy the GTA Online right where I left off!!

    As for the main game, GTAV is a masterpiece!! No question about it! As a fan since GTA III, I've seen the games get bigger and bigger sandboxes each time! Yet they never seem to be short of sand and fun toys to play with! As for the story, I loved it, for the exception of FRANKLIN.

    Why?! Because the other two guys get some type of closure or at least a reasonable conclusion to their stories. I kind of felt Franklin was the centerpiece of the story, with Trevor and Michael being his guidance towards and away from his grip on the world he lived in. Sure, Trevor and Michael have their own stories (which are AMAZING), but there just seemed to be very little attention to fleshing out his character. Hell, I thought CJ's character from GTA Sandreas had more depth than him!! By the end of the game, I felt sorry for Franklin, as he seemed just sad and alone...but maybe that's just me.

    Gameplay wise, GTA is the best its ever been. Driving has been drastically improved. (even though, I overcame the "bad handling" in GTA IV just fine when I played it.) Gunplay still remains tight and has been optimized, but still remains the same outside of the special abilities each character gets. And the world is just massive, with tons of diversions and places to explore.

    My only major complaint, NO FAST TRAVEL in the main game OR GTA Online.

    Outside of that, GTAV is a MUST PLAY for any mature gamer out there!    … Expand

    Can't find fault really. Nothing to compare it too. It is a lot of fun. Nice stories. Great gameplay, open world. If there is one thing i suggest is creating more offline stuff to do after story mode, and stick to 1 protagonist. I don't want to swap to 2 others.

    Rockstar should improve on the job creator instead of ignoring the flaws. For instance you still can't use parachutes in races in GTA mode! And if you lock a race to one specific car players can still use other customized cars.

    Also there are still no wild animals in online mode, why are there no deers and mountain lions to hunt? And why can't our character hang on ledges anymore, like he used to do in previous GTA games?

    Still GTA V is a great game with an eye for the small details: footprints in wet sand, car ventilators work after the motor gets overheated etc. And there are plenty of updates which bring new cars and game modes to keep us going untill the next GTA game will come out!    … Expand

    First of I would be more than happy to say that this is the best grand theft so far well that’s my opinion. Rock star have added a lot of new features since the last grand theft auto which is a big improvement. They have improved there quality a lot and made a lot more things more realistic. Also Rock star have now allowed players to create their own characters online and play with friends and random people by creating online servers which can hold up to 20 players per a session. Also they have added numerous online events were you vs. rivals and friends to earn cash. Rock star have recently added a new way to earn cash by doing heists with friends or other online players to earn rp to level up and cash to buy things for your player. They recently added stunt races and new apartments for your player to live in which is almost realistic. Apart from that the campaign is great as well being able to switch between 3 characters and do different story lines wall all link to the same one eventually. But I would rate this game 9/10 it’s a great game to play with you friends and a wide range of different missions, races etc but could do with some improvement with the servers. I don’t really have anything bad to say about the game but the only thing I can say is that they need to improve their speed to connect to online servers as i said above. Apart from this a great game and I recommended people to buy it.

However, if we talk about GTAV Online then the story changes and not for the best.

    GTAV Online has huge potential and, in some of the formats it presents, it succeeds massively. The developers have continued to add thorough, new content as and when available and, for a long time, kept it fresh. There are multiple problems though and these shall be listed below:

    - Sharkcards. These are at the heart of the big issues online. It is very difficult to make money due to the low financial gains you make in the various modes (seriously even cocaine dealing is programmed to make only marginal profits). This incentivizes players to do one of two things: 1) buy a sharkcard; 2) stop playing. That leads to empty servers, a lack of atmosphere and the death of online. It also leads to the hackers (level 8000 people this is you) though certainly not the only reason. I cannot make peace with what is a blatant attempt by Rockstar to rake in even more money through these microtransactions - if the financial rewards were even close to realistic for completing missions then it would be palatable - that they so obviously skew the game to try and maximize profit grates on me enormously.

    I cannot score the game a 10 when developers do what they have done to the Online mode - it is unforgivable and a common trend in the gaming world to try and milk every last drop of money from the players - it ain't on in my opinion. I'd give single player a 10 - Online a 5, total 7.5 downgraded to a 7 for lascivious business practice.    … Expand

There were times where I'd get myself into car crashes because I'd be messing with the camera to give myself a panoramic view of my surroundings as I was driving.

    1) Beauty of the open world - It was stunning on the PS4. There were times where I'd get myself into car crashes because I'd be messing with the camera to give myself a panoramic view of my surroundings as I was driving. I just wanted to stare at everything.

    2) Sheer variety of activities to do - This is a game where you can rob banks, fly planes, steal cars, jump out out of helicopters, or just blow **** up in general. The main story ensures that you can do all of these things. I avoided partaking of random activities like tennis or golf, or having sex with prostitutes because they didn't interest me. However, for those who want to immerse themselves in the world this way, it's an added benefit.

    3) Absolutely super voice acting and dialogue - outstanding, the best voice acting I've heard in a video game to date.

    4) Good story - I enjoyed the story, and did feel compelled to see it through to the end. I wasn't riveted or anything, but I don't necessarily think that's what the game was aiming for.

    Negatives

    1) Too much driving - honestly, while sometimes I enjoyed driving around the city and appreciate the world around me, I found it tedious to have to drive long distances everywhere I went. It would be nice if in future GTA's they perhaps include something like fast-travel.

    2) Clunky controls - the controls felt a bit clunky at times, and while it didn't detract too much from my overall enjoyment, there were points where I was very frustrated. I particularly didn't like the flying controls. Sometimes flying planes and choppers felt smooth, but other times it felt impossible to simply go straight and i was just veering wildly from side to side until (by luck) I reached my destination. The combat could also be a bit smoother, but in general I still had fun shooting people and beating them up.

They created GTA 5 so well, even I think it deserves GOTY (And Im a nit picker!). The game is the closest thing to perfect, of course the title has flaws such as the long loading screen but its still one of the greatest and latest games to come out in 2013-15. However the titles flaws are online, I think online is fun and unique and adds replayability, however the online is a bit laggy and has lots of hackers on it sometimes (mainly on the PC version and last gen consoles) Rockstar really created a good game and many more to come in the foreseeable future:

    GTA V was arguably one of the most anticipated and best games of the last generation and it's re-release on the PS4 is highly welcomed but I wouldn't say its really needed for returning players on current generation consoles. The online is good but still needs improvements.    … Expand

    The definitive version of what is quite possibly the greatest game ever made. It's worth reliving. [Feb 2015, p.58]

    The best game on PS3 is now the best thing on PS4. A loving, comprehensive remaster of such quality, it's damn near as essential as oxygen. But it. Yesterday. [Jan 2015, p.91]
